Well, easy ones first. It is limit holdem, and if I put in that much action, I am not folding to a cap.

I think the first hand is borderline, so I don't think it matters much if you threebet here or not.

On the second hand, given that it is blind vs blind, I think it is very likely that you are ahead, I can imagine that your opponent would play a set the same way, so I don't even mind getting capped.

What's the worst beat you've given?

I don't think I've given a beat this bad in a VERY long time.


Nitttttttttttyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy 10 game live.

I open A6s in HJ(we're like 6 or 7 handed)
button calls, BB calls.

T63r.
I bet, BTN raises I call.

Turn A. I CR, SB 3bets, ugghhh AT good I call.
River 6.
I CR, Button just calls

33 no good.


His river just call is pretty hot, but I guess that's why he's a nit.
WOW I was floored when he had that.

I don't remember the exact board or anything, and I'm too lazy to dig thru PT looking for it, but basically this was close to the scenario:

I open AJs in MP, I get 3bet by a solid TAG, folds to me and I call. Flop is QQJ, I check/call. Turn is another Q, I check/call. River is the case Q, I bet and he makes the ultimate crying call with JJ, basically just so he could show me what a suckout I'd just put on.

Might have been a little different, but I do know that he flopped a boat & I runner runnered quads w/A kicker to win.

Default One More Time: Why I Hate Slowplaying

The whole table is pretty loose. MP2 is very loose, very aggressive (not so much preflop tho), and very bad. UTG is loose, very aggressive, and also very bad.

Full Tilt 3/6 Hold'em (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls.

Flop: (12.50 SB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(6 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, BB folds, UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 caps</font>, Hero calls, UTG calls.

Turn: (13.75 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 caps</font>, Hero calls, UTG calls.

River: (26.75 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets $2.5 (All-In)</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG calls.

Final Pot: 29.16 BB
<font color="#009B00">Main Pot: 28 BB, between Hero, UTG and MP2.</font> &gt; <font color="#FFFFFF">Pot won by Hero (28 BB).</font>
<font color="#009B00">Pot 2: 1.16 BB, between Hero and UTG.</font> &gt; <font color="#FFFFFF">Pot won by Hero (1.16 BB).</font>

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
UTG has Th Ad (two pair, aces and tens).
MP2 has Qh Ac (one pair, aces).
Hero has 6c 6d (three of a kind, sixes).
Outcome: Hero wins 29.16 BB. </font>

I was kinda disappointed in myself. I thought for sure MP2 had AK.

I'm the BB in a live 6-12 game.

UTG open raises, and everyone calls. I have 97 off, but it's 17-1 to call, so I call.

Flop, AJ9 rainbow. SB checks, I check UTG bets, and everyone calls again. Well, its only 26-1 now, I only need 2 good cards, and I might have more, I call again.

Turn 9. Well, that's one of the good cards, Check, check, UTG bets, folded to MP who raises and is all in, Folded to me, and I threebet. UTG stews for a while, and then folds AK face up. MP and I turn our hands over, and he has J9, River is an Ace, giving us both 9s full of Aces and a chop.

So I went from drawing almost dead on the flop to getting half the pot, when I forced the AK out of the pot.

lol that's probably the highest tilt-inducing beat given in a limit game ever.

Two people are still on tilt from that hand.
